Hermann Lücke

Hello

I have read that Hermann Lücke (78 victories, RK, died of wounds 8 November 1943) was involved in two incidents while serving with 3./JG 54 in January 1942. The first purportedly occurred on 9 January when he force-landed his Bf 109 F-2 "Yellow 10" (W.Nr. 5489) due to engine trouble and the second is said to have occurred on 20 January when he again force-landed his Bf 109 F-2 "Yellow 10" (W.Nr. 5489) this time due to a technical fault. However, the QM 6 does not list the first incident and the cause of the second emergency landing is listed as having been due to enemy fire at Wjenjadolowo. Would any one be able to clarify these two incidents? Did the first incident occur and if so where? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Horrido!

Leo
